I tend to only peruse through 007âs substantial posts and replies, but I believe some of his comments are reflective of a communication/language barrier. Regardless, it doesnât bother me.

Not directly related to the renovation of the station itself, but this project is just as important. Construction is finally kicking off for a new Portal Bridge.

Looks great, especially all the light. But obviously the station needs a whole lot more.

The floor should be replaced as well. Its quite gross.

Though I agree, from this render, it doesnât look like it will be replaced, probably just cleaned/buffed out, similar to what appears has been done on the floor closer to the construction barrier/wall where it is whiter/lighter.

I assume this is MTA concourses. NJT doesnât get any love lol.
Either way, it looks really good so far and is a major improvement over the current facilities.

Well the fact that the article is even comparing it to Grand Central Terminalâs ceiling is kind of absurd.
Of course itâs not GCT, duh, but Iâm sure it will look better when the lights are programmed to change colors, hopefully that aspect hasnt been valued out.

Oh please no. Just because we can, doesnât mean we have to. I think plain white lighting is 1000x classier.

It looks a little too sterile to just be static, especially in the monotonous grid pattern itâs laid out in, I donât particularly want it to be extremely vivid and flashy in color tones/depth, but if itâs an extremely slow moving/changing and calm toned hue, Iâd prefer that over the static white.
But even outside of the ceiling treatment, it looks like the columns also have LED screens on them that are projecting bluish hues as depicted in the renders. But Iâm questionable as to the fact if those are actual LED screens or just bluish hued aluminum panels, the construction photo of the corridor makes it look like they are LED screens.
One of the photos by the MTA indicated they do have the capability to change colour. Note the single pastel purple-coloured panel.

Its literally just a standard room with lights in it. Boring!
Oh would you prefer they added the waterslide before or after the lights?
